I had the chance to run this scope on my rifle last fall. Feature rich and great glass. Check it out.

Whisky, you and I think alike! : ) I wish they made a 42mm version... : ) What caliber are you getting your M92 Backcountry in?Would this scope look out of place on a Cooper 92 Backcountry?
So would you replace all your NXS scopes with these or satisfied either way?
A 42 would be nice...Whisky, you and I think alike! : ) I wish they made a 42mm version... : ) What caliber are you getting your M92 Backcountry in?
Ryan,
Have you had a chance to see the new Leupold VX-6 with the Zero Lock? Are they comparable scopes?
Leaning toward 300wm as well... to many options these days... : )A 42 would be nice...
Well, considering I haven't seen a caliber list yet, or price...I'm just gonna assume they are gonna do one up in 300wm and that would be my choice I think. What about you?

I need to compare the X5 to and enhanced Nightforce.
Don't quote me on this. But talking to lupy at shot the only difference in glass is the diamond coating they use on the VX 6 is better. I don't know if that affects clarity or not. I've never had them side by side to compare.Ryan, is there a clarity or quality difference between the vx-3 and vx-6?
What do you mean by "enhanced" Nightforce?
Ryan, so how would you rate the VX6 in the mix? Would you put one on your gun?
Ryan, I have read the x5 review a couple of times and there isn't much info out there. I see they make it in 1/4 and 1/8 moa. 1/8 would give more precision per stop of adjustment. What is given up in doing so? is there a difference in travel or # of revolutions for the long end? I am not buying anytime soon, but this is currently one of the front runners in my search for a replacement. I was looking at the 5-25x56 at 30 ounces.
Ryan,Looking at getting the christensen arms tfm in 300 Win Mag, what are you thoughts on this rifle for long range shooting? I just picked up the X5 5-25x56 for this set up. Any info would be great.
What do you like better about the ELR Ultra stock vs the TFM. I have not seen either of these in person
